Wednesday and Thursday will remain quiet with comfortable temperatures under partly sunny skies. Highs will reach for the mid 70s with overnight lows near 60°. Hurricane Matthew will approach the southeast coast Friday into Saturday. Although the storm will remain to our southeast, expect rain and windy conditions late Friday into Saturday. Conditions will improve late Saturday into Sunday.

*We continue to track hurricane Matthew. The hurricane will continue to move northwest over the next few days and track through the Bahamas as it approaches the southeast coast. As it approaches the South Carolina coastline, it will gradually shift to the north and northeast before making landfall along the North Carolina coast. Depending on how quickly the storm changes direction, will determine the exact impacts. Regardless of the exact track, coastal communities should remain weather alert throughout the week. The greatest impact will be felt right along the coast with strong winds, heavy rain, and rough surf.*

Wednesday: Sun and clouds, a nice afternoon. High 75°. NNE wind 5-15 mph.

Wednesday Night: Scattered clouds, a quiet night. Low 61°. NE wind 5-10 mph.

Thursday: Partly cloudy, a breezy afternoon. High 75°. NE wind 10-20 mph.
